8bit_Ghost Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) I'm not naming names nor do I want you to give or find names to name (seriously don't do that) but I'm pretty amazed by how some people don't know how forums work...like with the most basic concept of "if someone doesn't reply to your post 30 seconds after you post it that doesn't mean go post it as a SEPARATE TOPIC 3 or 6 more times" Like it's not just this forum it's literally every forum And I sorta get that forums are probably weird and new and mystical to you. Yeah. But sometimes I just wanna go over and just say "Shhhhhh...calm down...you'll be okay". Actually, there's a lotta people that could use that sometimes, not just here. Any forum habits you grumble at? And I know it is so easy to say names here: please don't. We can discuss this without actually shaming anyone.

Brahmastra Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Don't even get me started on the people that feel the need to get their post count up. These meaningless replies on every topic from some ppl.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maou Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Just so you know, not all threads that are put up that has the same name are "spammed". some of them are actually forums bugs. meaning a double-triple post are not always intentional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true. And actually I think this forum is pretty susceptible to it. But then again there are people who do this habit anyways. Sometimes they post in every single topic because they want to get it noticed faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixty5 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 People who post nearly daily topics in the same forum get on my nerves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I am still trying to figure out what it takes to make a popular thread. Include "Megathread" in the title. Works like a charm. But I don't know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8bit_Ghost Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 Include "Megathread" in the title. Works like a charm. But I don't know why. Ahaha mega threads are just all the incredibly similar threads that have been combined into one by mods to reduce clutter. It confused me at first but then when I saw a little star next to a mega thread that I had no recollection of posting in, I understood it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
